Arab High School to stop pregame prayers after complaint

ARAB, Alabama -- The superintendent of Arab City Schools is stopping the pregame prayers at Arab High School after 10 years because of a complaint from The Freedom From Religion Foundation, WHNT News 19 reports.

Despite court rulings banning school-sponsored prayer, Superintendent John Mullins started the public prayer at football games 10 years ago after students requested it, WHNT reports. The games will now begin with a moment of silence.
